Thank you!

A big thank you goes out to the families at Elizabeth Ide for supporting Jump Rope for Heart. Thank you for helping your child collect donations and getting them get excited about helping others. All donations will need to be turned in by this Thursday. After that I will not be able to send any more donations in.
As a school and grade we had some pretty high goals. While we didn't reach them, we did come close and had fun tracking our progress. As a school we have raised 4328 dollars that was turned in. Online and late turn in donations have not been accounted for yet.

Thank you gifts will be passed out 3-4 weeks after all donations have been sent in. Thank you again for supporting Jump Rope for Heart and the American Heart Association.

Celebration

Jump Rope for Heart is taking place this week with students enjoying various jump rope activities and participating in a celebration for their efforts in raising donations for the American Heart Association. While our goal is still in reach we have a ways to go. With one week to go students have brought in over $1100 dollars!

Jump Into the Cause

Students have already started bringing in donations. This week and next each grade will be learning heart facts. Every day they will learn about the causes, warning signs, and ways that their contributions help!

Square your set

Second grade is beginning square dancing this week. Emphasis is put on learning the basics, positions and considering others' feelings while having fun. Students have done a great job so far with their dance unit and have learned some new and interesting warm ups.

Reminder: Jump Rope for Heart turn in is the week of February 15th.
